What I dont know is the rules when it has the aluminum nose and scoop ?? Seems most in Stock are steel nose no scoop cars. I believe they built 145 Max Wedge 64 Plymouth's and about 100 were aluminum nose cars so I thought most would run the scoop. Or does it have to have the aluminum front end to use the scoop ??

The last time I saw a complete aluminum nose for a 1964 Plymouth (fenders, hood and scoop to make it legal for Stock or SS), the price was about $20k. NHRA should look at equivalent weight replacement fiberglass parts as a cost savings for racers. Or, at least allow a fiberglass hood and scoop and make them run steel fenders. It appears to me that NHRA doesn't want anyone to run the light weight package.

I'd try to contact John Shaul in NY about that combo. I think he's the fastest MW car out there in Stock. He did a set of carbs that I bought from Bogner several years ago.
